COOKS NAY SHOW FIGHT.
THEY DO NOT TAKE TO THE
LATE DINNER MOVEMENT.

The Change of Hours to Be Tnaugurated
To-day Restaurants and Lunch
Counter Men GA the Lookout for n
sOom-The Hotels Not Prepared for
he Change-A IL O'Clock Dinner
Movement On Foot.
The cooks willing, to-day will inaugu-
rate the O'Clock dinner for business
men. The restaurant and lunch counter
proprietors expect good business about
hooa or later, and some of them will give
an extra course or Two on the menu.
Sandwiches, cold meats, puddings, Oys-
tiers, pie and apples will be in demand,
and probably in the pockets OF good
many when they leave home in the morn
ing. Clerks and business men who live
In boarding houses will have to rely upon
such lunches as can be obtained by f0rag
ing around among public ealing places,
because they will be deharred from taking
their lunch with them.
TIE COOKS do not take at all kindly to
the new scheme. Iney claim that they
will be much harder worked, because
they Will have 10 get two dinuerR. There
will be one set of citizens VINO Will still
hold on to the = O'Clock dinner, and the
hotels and boarding houses will have to
cater to them. Some Of the hotel clerks
say that there are people mean enough TO
eat two big dinners just to beat the house.
In such cases the guest ought to suffer as
well as the house, and he probably will
unless he mas metal lined stomach.
The orlginatOrs OF the late dinner move
rnent have but one fear of its success, and
that is that the cooks will either strike
or prepare such indigestible dishes that
everyone viii be disguised and want to
go back to the old custom. or the two
plans the latter is the most dreaded, as 1t
is the most horrible in its possible re-
suits. II the cooks are really as deter
mined in their opposition as some of them
pretend to be, the chances are strong that
every man on Bay street will be an in
durable dyspepuc within year if the
late dinner is persisted in.
On Feb. l the MORNING NEWS and
severa! other establishments will change
the dinner hour from | O'Clock to II. A
petition iavOring the latter change has
been quite generally circulated and has
been signed by some of the leading firms
In the city who employ large numbers of
hands, and who believe that the change
from | and 2 O'Clock to T. will be more
satisfactory than doing way with the
20'clock dinner aud waiting until 6 tor
the midday meal, which in many in
stances would be wholly im2ractica6le.

to the Medical News has been
made by DR.. f. Peyre Porcher,

cent earthquake shocks in that city upon
The health OF the inhabitants. In addi-
tlon TO the natural alarm and fright
which were quite universal, some per-
sons were attacked with nausea and
vomiting, which required or persisted
in several cases TOR days. Two gentle
men on the islands eighty miles from
Charleston had their eyes filled with
tears, not to be depressed, but not caused
by alarm or Tears tor their personal
safety, Tor the danger there was no. i'm
minent. Many persons experienced de-
cldedly electrical disturbances, which
were repeated upon the successive recur-
renee OF the shocks. These were gen
orally tlngling, pricking sensations, Ike
needles and pins" affecting the lower
eXtremitles. One gentleman was COM
pletely relieved of his rheumatism; an
other, who for months WAS nervous. de-
pressed and entirely unable to attend to
business, regained his former activity aud
energy. Several cases OF mental dis.
turbanoe, owing to anxiety and prolonged
